It's interesting you mention not equal-tempered in that rant.  What are 
you actually working on?  I've got C++ MIDI software, see 
<http://www.microtonal.co.uk/software.htm> you might get some inspiration 
from.  Now you have a basic library, perhaps I could assist you on 
improving it.  Contact me privately if this is getting to specialist.
